Update CONTRIBUTING.md
Fixes#77215
As mentioned in #77215, the current CONTRIBUTING.md links to the rustc-dev-guide.
Even though the rustc-dev-guide has lots of useful information for contributors,
one is already confused by reading the first line of the current CONTRIBUTING.md.

This line tells the contributor to go and read the rustc-dev-guide. What is
the rustc-dev-guide? What does rustc even mean? These are some of the
questions that went into my head when reading this line as a first-time
contributor. By explaining what the rustc-dev-guide is and some platforms
to get help, a new contributor understands what the first step is and the process
is much clearer. The `About the [rustc-dev-guide]` section explains what

Change x64 size checks to not apply to x32.
Rust contains various size checks conditional on target_arch = "x86_64", but these checks were never intended to apply to x86_64-unknown-linux-gnux32. Add target_pointer_width = "64" to the conditions.
Bump libc dependency of std to 0.2.88.
This PR bumps the `libc` dependency of `std` to 0.2.88. This will fix `TcpListener::accept` for Android on x86 platforms (31a2777d8f).
This will really finally fix https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82400 for the main branch :)

or-patterns: disallow in `let` bindings
~~Blocked on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/81869~~
Disallows top-level or-patterns before type ascription. We want to reserve this syntactic space for possible future generalized type ascription.

Added #[repr(transparent)] to core::cmp::Reverse
I found casting from an `&T` to an `&Reverse<T>` potentially useful, but found that `Reverse` was not `#[repr(transparent)]`, so after asking about it [on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/le60uv/make_stdcmpreverse_reprtransparent_and_add_a/), I decided to go ahead and make a pull request which simply adds the attribute to the struct.
Improve sift_down performance in BinaryHeap
Replacing `child < end - 1` with `child <= end.saturating_sub(2)` in `BinaryHeap::sift_down_range` (surprisingly) results in a significant speedup of `BinaryHeap::into_sorted_vec`. The same substitution can be done for `BinaryHeap::sift_down_to_bottom`, which causes a slight but probably statistically insignificant speedup for `BinaryHeap::pop`. It's interesting that benchmarks aside from `bench_into_sorted_vec` are barely affected, even those that do use `sift_down_*` methods internally.
| Benchmark | Before (ns/iter) | After (ns/iter) | Speedup |
|--------------------------|------------------|-----------------|---------|
| bench_find_smallest_1000<sup>1</sup> | 392,617 | 385,200 | 1.02 |

rustdoc: Cleanup `html::render::Context`
- Move most shared fields to `SharedContext` (except for `cache`, which
isn't mutated anyway)
- Replace a use of `Arc` with `Rc`
- Make a bunch of fields private
- Add static size assertion for `Context`
- Don't share `id_map` and `deref_id_map`

Revert switch of env locking to rwlock, to fix deadlock in process spawning
This reverts commit 354f19cf24, reversing changes made to 0cfba2fd09.
PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/81850 switched the environment lock from a mutex to an rwlock. However, process spawning (when not able to use `posix_spawn`) locks the environment before forking, and unlocks it after forking (in both the parent and the child). With a mutex, this works (although probably not correct even with a mutex). With an rwlock, on at least some targets, unlocking in the child does not work correctly, resulting in a deadlock.
This has manifested as CI hangs on i686 Linux; that target doesn't use `posix_spawn` in the CI environment due to the age of the installed C library (currently glibc 2.23). (Switching to `posix_spawn` would just mask this issue, though, which would still arise in any case that can't use `posix_spawn`.)
Some additional cleanup of environment handling around process spawning may help, but for now, revert the PR and go back to a standard mutex.
Fixes#82221
diagnostics: Be clear about "crate root" and `::foo` paths in resolve diagnostics
Various changes to make sure the diagnostics are clear about the differences in `::foo` paths across editions:
- `::foo` will say "crate root" in 2015 and "list of imported crates" in 2018
- `crate::` will never reference imported crates in 2018
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/82876
Add note about the `#[doc(no-inline)]` usage
This is required to correctly build the documentation (including all submodules, that are only available in certain targets).
See the linked issue and #82861 for reference.
Update minifier dependency version
Very small PR simply upgrading the minifier-rs version we use in rustdoc.
Some details might be useful: there were a few bug fixes and a lot of cleanup/code improvements.
